Introduction:
Made in Europe by a company of world renown, with centuries of expertise and tradition. This 100% Linen gives you the benefits of both wonderful natural fibres.
This fabric will be cool and breathable, get softer with washing & wear and linen is impervious to moths and resists dirt and stains. Linen will not form lint or pill and can be washed at high temperatures with only moderate shrinkage. The characteristic slubs (once viewed as a fault) are now part of the aesthetic appeal of quality linen fabric.
Colour:
Midnight Blue Shadow This overall washed mid-denim blue-toned fabric gets its pleasing navy hue from the use of a classic white heavier gauge yarn sitting on the warp and the use of fine gauge mid denim blue yarn throughout the weft. This creates a pleasing multi-toned, sketchy light to mid-denim hue.

Lightly textured with characteristic linen slubs.
Stable and hardwearing.
Malleable and soft enough to produce gathers and pleats and tucks.
Reassuring weighty drape quality.
